In the statistics of Can't Stop, there is a row "Number of abandoned", what do you want to see there exactly?
1) The amount of times a player left the game (rage quit/afk)?
OR
2) The amount of times a player has chosen "Stop" instead of continue to get his save points?

If you mean 1), then the Dutch translation should be "Verlaten spellen".
If you mean 2), then the Dutch translation should be "Aantal stops" and the English translation should be "Number of stops".
This is a good question. I've never noticed it because I don't look at stats cause, well, I can't. :lol: But I have no clue what that even means. Once we find out, maybe we can fix the original English.

I hope it's not #1 - and that's not really relevant to a particular game. There is a 3rd possibility, that it's the numbers that never got picked. Like if I have 7 & 4, and I already have my 3 spots that includes 7, so I pick that. The 4 kind of "gets abandoned." But I find this an odd thing to report in the statistics.

Statistics are about the game, so it's definitely 2).

In the game "Polis", italian transaltion, the phrase:

${you} must choose where to move hoplites to

is translated as
${you} devi scegliere da dove muovere gli opliti

but it should be translated as
${you} devi scegliere verso dove muovere gli opliti

Thanks for fixing it!

Thanks for fixing my last reports.
Hoping I am not boring you all, I'm continuing with a translation error in "Yahtzee" game.
The phrase:

Reach 63 points in the first section to earn 35 bonus points.

is translated as
Ottieni 63 punti nella prima sezione per ricevere 50 punti bonus

but it should be translated as
Ottieni 63 punti nella prima sezione per ricevere 35 punti bonus.

But, other than that, even if it is the translation of the popup (in the relative section of the game board), the popup isn't translated (I don't know if I should post that in the bug thread).

I updated your account so that you can fix validated strings, it will make it easier for you to fix mistakes when you chance upon them :)
Thanks for your interest in improving the Italian translation!

Yes, it should be posted as a bug with the "translation missing" category.

I'd like to point out that 2 validated translations for Hanabi in Hebrew are not translated the way players in Israeli refer to the multicolor deck.

the two strings, Multicolor, and Multicolor(10 cards), are translated as Joker Deck. Instead, players in Israeli refer to them as Colorful in hanabi sit down games. This should be fixed. Joker implies that anything goes, whereas Colorful implies that they contain a myriad of colors to choose from.

How do I go about correcting this?
